So this is where they all were!

I commented in another thread that I drove back and forth from Connecticut to Campobello Island, Canada, (off the easternmost tip of Maine...border station in Lubec, ME) and didn't see a single Airstream during the trip. I was astonished. But as I just learned after skimming through this thread it's because you were all enjoying yourselves in PEI! Sounds like a good time, I hope everyone had fun.

Did anyone lose a duck boot? I had to swerve to miss it on the bridge on the way out.

Hey Skip and Lynn,

Thanks for stopping by and visiting after you left the Desert. Barb, my wife, and I were so impressed that you stopped.

Steve

P. S. Tell David, thanks for the Tootsie Roll. Loved that orange flavor.

I almost forgot, wanted to say hello to all the attendees of the rally.

Barb, myself and our friends visited and thought it amazing.

We got our new axle installed on the Flying Cloud and towed it there and back as the shakedown cruise. Our friends have a S. O. B. and we weren't able to camp with you all. We stayed at a nice little campground a few miles away in Cymbria.

Our friends had trouble with their tranny, so we stayed most of the week while it was being fixed in Charlottetown.

We got to meet a fellow '62 owner and Mainer, Gary Campbell, Hi Gary!! Thanks for the tour.

Did anyone try a lobster supper? We did a survey a few years back, judging New Glasgow, St. Anne's and North Rustico. We think New Glasgow is the best of them all.

Glad to see everyone had such a good time. We are hoping to join you more in the future.

Steve and Barb

It was nice to see around 20 rigs there from the Ontario Unit(Region 2) supporting the Region 1 Rally.

Of course we stopped!! your trailer is beautiful!!!!

David, Allie and I were sooo happy to see your trailer when we left the desert of Maine. we're so glad we stopped too!!! How come you got a tootsie roll and I didn't???

I look forward to seeing you at some NEU rallies, rendevous or getogethers when you do join. You will find us all to be as friendly as David is.

Several were camped near me. I enjoyed their company very much. As I think back, I had even more fun than I thought I had while I was there.

Thank you all

I wanted to thank you all for being at the Rally without you it wouldn't have been the same.

We had a great time and we met lot of nice members and not to forget one of them I won't list any name. They know who they are.

I want also to thank Bob, without him that Rally would have never been... when two years ago he offered the CAU to host it it did sound almost impossible for our small unit to handle it. He took care of that and did what was needed to make it happened.

I want to thank Leonard and Michael for their huge job.
